PROCEEDINGS OF THE 123rd ANNUAL CONVENTION OF THE EPISCOPAL DIOCESE OF DALLAS

The Rt. Rev. George R. Sumner, Bishop of Dallas, served as Chair of the Convention and called the Convention to order.

Bishop Sumner thanked Dean Steven Seah, Archdeacon of Cambodia, Professor Wanda Malcolm, and Canon Victor Austin for their preaching and teaching at the Pre-Convention Leadership Day held the day before at St. Mathew’s Cathedral and the morning Eucharist.

The Chair then thanked the Daughters of the King and the Harvest Intercessory Prayer team for praying for the Convention throughout the day.

The Chair recognized the volunteers from the Episcopal School of Dallas, who served as pages for the Convention.

The Chair then called on Mrs. Jolayne LaCour, Chair of the Credentials Committee, to come to the dais for the purpose of giving a report on credentials.

Mrs. LaCour gave the following credentials report:

Clerical Order Lay Order 197 Canonically Resident 60 Parishes and Missions in the Diocese 65 Required for a Quorum 20 Required for a Quorum 114 Registered to Vote 179 Lay Delegates representing 57 Parishes and Missions registered

The report was adopted by voice vote, and the Chair declared a quorum present.

The Bishop recognized the Rev. Keith Turbeville, Rector of Holy Trinity by the Lake, Heath, and Chair of the Committee on Dispatch of Business, who presented the Rules of Procedure for the Annual Convention of the Diocese of Dallas as distributed. He referred delegates to the entire list of rules beginning on page 9 of the Convention Booklet.

The Rev. Turbeville highlighted a few of the more pertinent rules including the proper way to address the Bishop, a description of microphone usage during debate, and a request to turn off or mute all cell phones. The Chair asked delegates to stand to show approval on the adoption of the Rules of Procedure. The motion was approved with more than two-thirds of delegates standing, and the rules were adopted as follows.

RULES OF PROCEDURE FOR THE ANNUAL CONVENTION

Presiding Officer 1. The Bishop or such other person as provided in the Constitution and Canons of the Diocese shall serve as presiding officer. The presiding officer may call to the chair any qualified person to relieve him temporarily. The presiding officer shall have full power and authority to take such action (consistent with the Constitution and Canons) as he deems necessary to expedite the orderly disposition of the business of the Convention. 2. After the Convention is called to order by the presiding officer, an opening prayer shall be offered by the presiding officer or someone designated by him. 3. The presiding officer shall have the authority to appoint a parliamentarian of his own choice to advise him on parliamentary questions arising during the Convention. 4. Any person addressing the chair or desiring recognition of the chair while the Convention is in session shall address the chair as “Right Reverend Sir” if the Bishop is in the chair. If some other person is in the chair, he shall be addressed as “Mister/Madam President.”

Committees 5. In addition to the Nominating Committee provided for elsewhere in these Rules, the Ecclesiastical


5

Authority, within a reasonable length of time before the convening of the Annual Convention, may appoint from among the officers and staff of the Diocese, the delegates of the Convention and such other confirmed persons in good standing as the Ecclesiastical Authority may designate, the following committees:

Arrangements Credentials Dispatch of Business Constitution and Canons Elections

Each committee shall consist of a chair and such other members as the Ecclesiastical Authority may determine. Each committee shall perform such duties as may be deemed necessary or advisable to facilitate the business of the Convention and any specific duties assigned to such committee by the presiding officer or under the Constitution and Canons or these Rules. Members of these committees shall continue in office until their respective successors are appointed.

Order of Business 6. The order of business to be presented to the Convention for adoption shall be established by the presiding officer in accordance with the Constitution and Canons. 7. Any item of business of the Convention may be set as a special order of business or taken up out of its regular order at any time by a two-thirds vote of the delegates. Subject to the foregoing, the presiding officer shall have the authority, within his discretion, to deviate from the order of business adopted, as the exigencies of the occasion may require. 8. After being organized and ready to proceed to business, the first order of business shall be the election of a Secretary and one or more Assistant Secretaries, if needed. 9. All Resolutions of Substance (thus exempting Resolutions of Courtesy) shall be submitted to the Secretary of Convention no later than 10:00 in the morning of the first regular business day. Such resolutions shall be submitted in writing (a) with enough printed copies for distribution to all voting delegates and (b) in electronic form, on a portable memory device. If the resolutions mention outside data, resolutions, etc., copies of such material shall be made available to those requesting same. Such resolutions shall be referred by the presiding officer to the Committee on Dispatch of Business. The Committee shall give due and timely consideration to such resolutions and reports and, with reasonable dispatch, make its report thereon back to the Convention with its recommendation for final disposition on any such resolution or report.

Conduct of Business 10. A delegate desiring recognition of the Chair shall give his/her name and the name of the church he/she represents. 11. A delegate may use the microphone on the stage of the Convention only with the permission of the presiding officer. 12. A delegate making a report or debating shall go to the designated microphone. At the discretion of the presiding officer, microphones may be designated “pro” and “con” to expedite debate. A third microphone may be utilized for procedural motions and questions. 13. To expedite the business of the Convention, debates on any pending resolution or motion shall be limited to three minutes per speaker, and one person shall not speak more than once on the pending matter until all other persons who so desire have had an opportunity to be heard. No member shall speak more than two times to any one motion. The number of speakers for discussion shall be divided, as near as is practical, equally between the proponents and opponents of the pending subject. 14. A question having been decided shall not be reconsidered at the same Convention without the consent of two-thirds of the members present, nor without a motion for that purpose being made by one of the majority on the prior decision. No question shall be reconsidered more than once. 15. If required by the presiding officer, any motion shall not be considered as before the Convention unless reduced to writing. 16. When any proposed amendment to the Constitution or Canons is before the Convention, amendments


6

thereto may be sent up from the floor if, within the judgment of the presiding officer, such floor amendments are germane to the pending amendments and do not change the purpose of such pending amendments. 17. When consideration of the proposed Diocesan Budget is before the Convention, (a) each amendment thereto must indicate the specific line item(s) being increased and/or decreased, and (b) the aggregate dollar amount of changes proposed must be offsetting.

Reports 18. All reports, which have been printed and distributed in advance to all members of the Convention, shall be presented by title only and not read; however, any person presenting such a report may give a summary of it requiring not more than five minutes delivery. 19. The budget materials prepared for Convention shall include both descriptions of line items and rationale for changes in funding or deletions of line items from the budget of the previous year.

Nominations 20. The Ecclesiastical Authority shall appoint, not less than 60 days in advance of each Annual Convention, a Nominating Committee composed of four clergy and four lay persons resident in the Diocese, which shall report to the Convention nominations for all elective offices (other than those for which the bishop makes the nominations) in accordance with the following provisions:

(a) Except as to the Office of Secretary, Trustee of the University of the South, and President of the Disciplinary Board, there shall be nominated not less than two nominees for each office. (b) There shall be obtained from each nominee presented his/her personal assurance of his/her willingness and availability to serve, if elected. (c) The name of each nominee shall be accompanied by suitable brief biographical data, including a listing of parish, mission, and diocesan offices then and previously held. (d) Suggestions as to persons for consideration shall be sought from parishes, missions, and diocesan institutions, and from individuals. (e) Further nominations for any office may be made on or before the first regular business day of Convention. All such nominations must be submitted in writing on the prescribed nomination form to the Secretary of the Convention no later than the call to order of the first business session of the Convention; and accompanied by the copies of the biographical information required in sections (b) and (c) above with a sufficient number of nomination forms and biographical sheets for delivery equal to all lay and clerical Convention Delegates; and accompanied by the signatures of the nominator and the nominee. The Secretary of the Convention shall certify that any nominations so received are in good order and satisfy the requirements set forth in sections (b) and (c) above. After the Nominating Committee makes its report for each office to be elected, in succession, the Secretary of the Convention shall announce the names of the additional nominees for the same offices whose names have been placed in nomination according to the provisions of this rule and shall distribute the nomination forms and biographical information on those so certified to all Convention Delegates. No seconding speeches or endorsements of any candidate shall be allowed. Nominations made according to the provisions of this rule shall be added to the election ballots of delegates according to the direction of the Chair of the Elections Committee and thus eligible for election as the vote for each office proceeds. A nominee (or in his absence at the Convention, the Rector of the nominee’s Parish) may withdraw his name from consideration at any time.

Voting and Elections 21. When two or more equal positions are voted on simultaneously, a nominee must receive a majority of the total number of legal votes cast for such office. In the event a majority is received by more candidates than there are positions to be filled, those with the highest legal vote totals shall be elected. 22. In the election of persons wherein a concurring majority of both orders is required, in which only the number of persons required to fill the position or positions under consideration have been nominated, the Bishop, by unanimous consent of the Convention, may declare the candidates elected. 23. The Ecclesiastical Authority shall have the authority to appoint all Board Members, Trustees, and


7

Committee Members, and fill other positions which are not required to be elected or otherwise selected by the Constitution or Canons of the Diocese of Dallas or any other lawful authority. 24. Voting will be conducted in accordance with the following procedures:

(a) At the time of registration, each delegate shall be issued: (i) a yellow voting card to each lay delegate and a blue voting card to each member of the clergy and (ii) a yellow keypad card to each lay delegate and a blue keypad card to each member of the clergy. (b) Lay delegates and members of the clergy shall enter the Convention floor through doors marked “clergy” and “lay,” respectively. Upon entrance to the Convention floor for business sessions, each delegate will exchange his keypad card for a voting keypad. (c) If a delegate loses a voting card or keypad card, he must return to the registration desk for replacement. (d) When directed by the presiding officer, a delegate shall vote by either (i) using the keypad or (ii) raising a voting card, as directed by the presiding officer. (e) Doors shall be closed during voting and entry to the Convention floor shall be denied until ballots are collected, or, if not a ballot vote, until the results of the vote are announced. (f) Upon exiting the Convention floor, each delegate will exit only though the designated door and shall exchange his/her keypad for a keypad card. (g) In case of a malfunction of electronic voting equipment, the presiding officer shall establish procedures for voting by paper ballot or other means. (h) If deemed appropriate by the presiding officer, the presiding officer shall appoint a sufficient number of tellers to count voting cards raised on any vote. (i) Elections shall be conducted under the oversight of the Elections Committee, and the presiding officer may delegate authority to establish additional voting procedures to such committee.

Miscellaneous 25. The presiding officer, or such person as he may designate, shall be in charge of the admission of all media personnel to the Convention floor, and no TV or video cameras shall be permitted on the floor without the prior approval of the presiding officer. 26. No literature shall be distributed at the Convention, on the floor or on the premises, without prior approval of the presiding officer. 27. The audible use of cell phones and other personal accessories shall not be permitted during sessions of the Convention. 28. The proceedings of the Convention shall be tape recorded and permanently filed. The Journal of the Convention shall be reviewed and approved by a committee consisting of the Secretary, the Chancellor and the Parliamentarian. 29. Any of these rules may be suspended by a two-thirds vote of the delegates. These rules may be amended by a two-thirds vote of the delegates, provided such amendments are not in violation of the Constitution or Canons of the Diocese. 30. The Constitutions and Canons Committee shall be authorized to correct article, canon, and section designations, numbering, grammar, punctuation and cross-references and to make such other technical, typographical and conforming changes that will not change the meaning or intent of an amendment or resolution as may be necessary to reflect the intent of the Convention in approving the amendment or resolution. 31. The Rules of Procedure of the previous meeting of Convention shall be in force until they are amended or repealed.

The minutes were posted on the Diocesan website. The Chair thanked the committee and then asked the convention body if there were any objections to the Secretary of Convention, the Chancellor, and the Parliamentarian serving as the body that approved of the minutes for the 123rd Annual Diocesan Convention held in 2018.

Note: Underlined text represents additions to the present text. 2018—C03 Proposed amendment to Canon 28 to bring up to date with current practice.

This report shall be sent in duplicate not later than February 1st to the Bishop of the Diocese.

Section 28.2 The Bishop or the Secretary of the Diocese shall send the duplicate copies of the reports, accompanied by a tabulation of the data thereon, to the Executive Council of the Episcopal Church not later than March 1st.

Section 28.2 Copies of the reports and tabulation shall be filed in the Diocesan Office for the use of Commissions and Committees. These reports, or such parts of them as the Bishop may deem proper, shall be entered in the Journal of the Diocese.

Section 28.3 Any Parish or Mission of the Diocese that fails to file timely its Annual Report for the preceding year shall be subject to the following sanctions:

(b) In addition to the sanctions imposed by Section 28.3 (a) of this Canon, when any Parish or Mission has failed to timely file its Annual Report for two years in a row, the Parish or Mission shall lose voice and vote in the Diocesan Convention for the current year and in each subsequent Diocesan Convention until the Parish or Mission has timely filed its Annual Report.

(c) The imposition of the foregoing sanctions shall have no effect upon any member of the Parish or Mission already actively serving in any Diocesan Office.

(f) Treasurers and custodians, other than banking institutions, shall be adequately bonded; except treasurers of funds that do not exceed five hundred dollars at any one time during the fiscal year.

Section 29.3 Depository and Securities Accounts shall be managed according to the procedures prescribed in the Business Policy Manual.

Section 29.4 All accounts financial statements of the Diocese and Diocesan Entities shall be audited annually by an independent certified public accountant or such audit committee as shall be provided in the Business Policy Manual subject annually to a report by an independent certified public accountant according to the following operating revenue guidelines: Operating Revenue External Report Internal Report (Independent Certified Public Accountant) (Parish Committee)

$1,000,000 or above Independent Audit None $500,000-$999,999 Review EDOD Inspection Report $0-$499,999 Compilation EDOD Inspection Report

The audited financial statements, including but not limited to, the report of the auditors or audit committee independent Certified Public Accountant, statement of financial position (balance sheet), and statement of activities (operations), and, in the case of reviewed or compiled financial statements, an EDOD inspection report shall be filed with the Bishop, the Treasurer, and the Executive Council not later than September 1 of each year, covering the preceding calendar year.

(a) All audit reports shall be accompanied by any memorandum issued regarding the sufficiency of internal controls and other accounting matters required to be communicated to those charged with governance and a summary of action taken or proposed to be taken to correct deficiencies or implement recommendations contained in any such memorandum.

(b) Any Parish or Mission of the Diocese that fails to file timely its Annual Audit annual financial reports for the preceding year shall be subject to the following sanctions:

(i) When any Parish or Mission has failed to timely file its Annual Audit annual financial reports for any given year, no person from the Parish or Mission, clerical or lay, shall be eligible for election or appointment to any Diocesan Board, Committee, Commission or Office in the year following that given year.

(ii) When any Parish or Mission has failed to timely file its Annual Audit annual financial reports for two years in a row, the Parish or Mission shall lose voice and vote in the Diocesan Convention for the current year and in each subsequent Diocesan Convention until the Parish or Mission has timely filed its Annual Audit annual financial reports.

(iii) The imposition of the foregoing sanctions shall have no effect upon any member of the Parish or Mission already actively serving upon any Diocesan Board, Committee, Commission or Office.

(iv) For good cause shown, the Bishop, with the concurrence of the Finance Committee and Executive Council may suspend the imposition of sanctions arising from the failure to file timely the Annual Audit annual financial reports required by this Canon.


14

Rationale: Every Diocesan Entity as defined in Canon 29 should have acceptable financial statements for use by its leadership in providing stewardship oversight. Involvement of a Certified Public Accountant in preparing financial statements for all Diocesan Entities ensures correct and consistent presentation of financial information. The requirement for reporting by a Certified Public Accountant would become effective for financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. EDOD financial assistance to cover a portion or all of the cost of this service in its first year will be available to parishes or missions with less than $100,000 operating revenue.

Proposed by: The Treasurer, The Finance Committee and The Executive Council Mrs. Jolayne LaCour, Chair of the Credentials Committee, presented an updated credentials report.



Prior to discussion on this amendment, Mrs. LaCour moved adoption of the report at the direction of the committee. The chair called for a voice vote, and the report was adopted. The proposed amendment was recommended for adoption by the Constitution and Canons Committee., and Mr. Parsons moved for its adoption. Mr. Parsons then asked Assistant Treasurer Jim Smith to speak to the amendment on behalf of the Treasurer. There was much debate and discussion. The Rev. Douglas Anderson, St. James, Texarkana, moved to refer the amendment back to the Constitution and Canons Committee. The motion was seconded and a voice vote was taken. The result was inconclusive, and a vote by the raising of hands was taken. The referral passed, and the amendment was referred back to committee. 2018—C05 Proposed Amendment of Canon 29.2 to correct scriveners error and re-insert requirement for two signatories on order of withdrawal of funds unintentionally omitted from the Canons after an amendment was made to 29.1 by the 2011 Convention

CANON 29 BUSINESS METHODS

Add New Section 29.2(g)

(g) There shall be at least two (2) authorized signatures on any order of withdrawal of trust and permanent funds and all securities of whatsoever kind.

Rationale: In 2011, Convention adopted an Amendment to Canon 29 that removed a requirement that “Trust and permanent funds and securities of whatsoever kind shall be deposited with a federal or state bank, or other agency approved in writing by the Department of Finance of the Diocese under either a Deed of Trust or agency agreement, excepting such funds and securities as may be refused by the depositories named as being too small for acceptance”. This Amendment retained a sentence in Canon 29 that stated “There shall be at least two (2) authorized signatures on any order of withdrawal of such funds or securities.” This retained sentence was inadvertently omitted when the authenticated copy of the Constitution and Canons of the Diocese of Dallas was issued in 2011. This amendment corrects this scriveners error and makes a minor, non-substantive change in the


15

wording and placement of the provision to render it comprehensible without the text removed by the Amendment.

Proposed By: The Constitution and Canons Committee

The proposed amendment was recommended by the Constitution and Canons Committee, and Mr. Parsons moved for its adoption. The vote was taken, and the amendment passed. 2018—C06 Proposed Amendment of Canon 30.6 to conform the Canons to the current Bishop’s principles and practice

CANON 30 COMMISSION ON MINISTRY

Amend Section 30.6 as follows

Section 30.1 There shall be a Commission on Ministry consisting of no fewer than (9) members of the Clergy and no fewer than (9) lay persons. Members of this Commission shall be appointed by the Bishop at an Annual Convention and elected by a vote of the Convention. The terms of office shall be for three (3) years. Should vacancies occur on the Commission when the Convention is not in session, the Bishop shall nominate in the same manner to the Standing Committee upon whose confirmation the person or persons so designated shall be added to the Commission and shall serve the balance of the term for which appointed.

Section 30.2 The Commission on Ministry may adopt rules for its work subject to the approval of the Bishop, provided the same are not inconsistent with the Canons of the General Convention or the Diocese. These rules may include the appointment of committees of the Commission to act on it behalf.

Section 30.3 The Commission on Ministry shall assist the Bishop in matters pertaining to the enlistment and selection of persons for the ministry and in the guidance and pastoral care of all postulants and candidates for Holy Orders.

Section 30.4 [repealed]

Section 30.5 The Commission on Ministry shall assist the Bishop in matters pertaining to the continuing education of ministry.

Section 30.6 In the presence of the Bishop and under his guidance and oversight, the Commission on Ministry shall interview With the oversight of the Bishop, the Commission on Ministry shall ascertain the personal readiness for all candidates before their ordination, alike to the Diaconate and the priesthood, to ascertain their personal readiness for such ordination.

Section 30.7 The Commission on Ministry shall report in writing without delay the findings of this interview to the Bishop and the Standing Committee of the Diocese.

Section 30.8 The conduct and evaluation of the examination of persons for Holy Orders shall be the responsibility of the Commission on Ministry. The said Commission may use the services of the General Board of Examining Chaplains for the administration and evaluation of the examination.

Section 30.9 The Bishop shall transmit all reports from the General Board of Examining Chaplains to the Standing Committee of the Diocese and to the Commission on Ministry. In no case shall the Standing Committee recommend a candidate for ordination to the permanent Diaconate or to the priesthood until the required examinations have been satisfactorily sustained.

Section 30.10 The Commission on Ministry will make an annual report concerning its work to the Diocesan Convention.


16

Rationale: This proposal conforms to our current Bishop’s principles and practices, is perfectly compliant with the Constitution and Canons of the Episcopal Church, and saves many of our candidates and ordinands from unnecessary expenditure of energy, expense, and trouble.

Proposed By: Sandy Mebus, COM Chair and Cn. Jeremy Bergstrom, Canon for Vocations

The proposed amendment was recommended by the Constitution and Canons Committee, and Mr. Parsons moved for its adoption. The vote was taken, and the amendment passed. 2018—C01 Proposed amendment to Article 17 of the Constitution to require a two-thirds vote for changes to the Constitution (SECOND READING)

ARTICLE 17 ALTERATIONS AND AMENDMENTS TO THE CONSTITUTION

The Constitution of this Diocese may be altered or amended as follows: A proposal for an alteration or an amendment shall be filed in writing with the Secretary of the Convention not less than sixty (60) days before the meeting of an Annual Convention. The Secretary shall, not less than forty-five (45) days before the meeting of the Convention, deliver copies of all proposed alterations or amendments to the Constitution to the Chair of the Committee on Constitution and Canons, consisting of at least two (2) members of the Clergy and two (2) Lay persons. The Committee shall report thereon to the Convention. No other alteration or amendment to the Constitution shall be considered at that meeting except by unanimous consent of the Convention. Such proposed alteration or amendment shall be presented in writing at the meeting of the Convention. Where any amendment or alteration to the Constitution has been so proposed and referred to the Committee, amendments thereto may be made from the floor of the Convention if, within the judgment of the presiding officer of the Convention, such amendments are germane to the pending amendment or alteration. If the proposal, together with any amendments pertinent thereto, receive the a two-thirds majority vote of the Convention, it shall be printed in the Journal and shall lay over until the next Annual Convention, and if then approved by a concurrent two-thirds majority of the vote of both orders, the Constitution shall be altered or amended accordingly, and such alteration or amendment shall take effect thirty (30) days after the adjournment of the Convention.

Rationale: St. Peter writes, “Finally, all of you, be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous” (1 Peter 3:8). Our constitution and canons are not simply a legal document, but a moral and theological one that orders our common diocesan life. When we vote to change it, all are affected. Decision-making in the church should seek consensus, genuinely common discernment in the body of Christ formed by Scripture, and not just a simple majority of votes. Precedent for this can be found elsewhere in the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion, and follows good practice as described by Robert’s Rules of Order (11th ed., p. 580-1; note that ‘bylaws’ here is roughly equivalent to our ‘canons’):

Article IX: Amendment of Bylaws. The bylaws should always prescribe the procedure for their amendment, and such provision should always require at least that advance notice be given in a specified manner, and that theamendment be approved by a two-thirds vote. If the bylaws contain no provision for their amendment, they can be amended by a two-thirds vote if previous notice (in the sense defined on p. 121) has been given, or they can be amended by the vote of a majority of the entire membership.

And previously, on p. 12-13:

Constitution; Bylaws In general, the constitution or the bylaws—or both—of a society are the documents that contain its own basic rules relating principally to itself as an organization, rather than to the parliamentary procedure that it follows. In the ordinary case, it is now the recommended practice that all of a society's


17

rules of this kind be combined into a single instrument, usually called the "bylaws," although in some societies called the "constitution"—or the "constitution and bylaws," even when it is only one document. The term bylaws, as used in this book, refers to this single, combination-type instrument—by whatever name the particular organization may describe it—which:

1) should have essentially the same form and content whether or not the society is incorporated (except for the omission or inclusion of articles on the name and object as noted below);

2) defines the primary characteristics of the organization—in such a way that the bylaws serve as the fundamental instrument establishing an unincorporated society, or conform to the corporate charter if there is one;

3) prescribes how the society functions; and 4) includes all rules that the society considers so important that they (a) cannot be changed

without previous notice to the members and the vote of a specified large majority (such as a two-thirds vote), (b) cannot be suspended (with the exception of clauses that provide for their own suspension under specified conditions, or clauses in the nature of rules of order as described on p. 17, ll. 22–25; see also pp. 263–65, 580–82).

Proposed by: Fr. David Faulkner, Rector, Church of the Good Shepherd, Terrell Fr. Bob Corley, Rector, St. Mark’s, Irving

The proposed amendment was recommended by the Constitution and Canons Committee, and Mr. Parsons moved for its adoption. The amendment was debated. The vote was taken, and the amendment passed. 2018—C02 Proposed amendment to Article 18 of the Constitution to require a two-thirds vote for changes to the Canons (SECOND READING)

ARTICLE 18 CANONS

Canons not inconsistent with this Constitution, or the Constitution and Canons of the General Convention, may be adopted, altered, amended or repealed at any Annual Convention by a two-thirds majority vote of the Convention; provided that no new Canon and no alteration, amendment or repeal of an existing Canon shall be adopted unless the same shall have been filed in writing with the Secretary of the Convention not less than sixty (60) days before the meeting of the Convention; and provided further that a new canon or an alteration, amendment or repeal of an existing Canon that is inconsistent with Title IV of the Canons of the General Convention may be adopted at any Annual Convention by a concurrent majority vote of both orders.

Rationale: St. Peter writes, “Finally, all of you, be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous” (1 Peter 3:8). Our constitution and canons are not simply a legal document, but a moral and theological one that orders our common diocesan life. When we vote to change it, all are affected.

The proposed amendment was recommended by the Constitution and Canons Committee, and Mr. Parsons moved for its adoption. The amendment was debated. The Rev. Michael Mills made a motion to lay on the table the amendment until a decision about suspending the Constitution can be made. A short break was taken.

After the Convention reconvened, Mrs. Jolayne LaCour, Chair of the Credentials Committee, presented an updated credentials report.




The Chair stated that after discussion of the Chancellor and Parliamentarian, the motion to lay on the table the amendment was out of order. Discussion on the original amendment continued.

The vote was taken, and the amendment passed.

The Chair then announced the lunch recess and offered a prayer.

After lunch the Chair reconvened the Convention.

Mr. David Parsons resumed the report of the Constitution and Canons Committee. The committee met over the

lunch break regarding amendment 2018 – C04 and referred it back to Convention with no changes.




The Rev. Rebecca Tankersley, Transfiguration, Dallas, came to the procedural microphone stating that everyone was asked to return by 1:30, and it was ten minutes prior to that. The Chair then proceeded to give his address and postpone voting.

Address to the 123rd Annual Convention The Rt. Rev. George R. Sumner, Bishop, Diocese of Dallas

In the name of God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Amen. Women, children, the old, clergy, monks, seminarians, pilgrims, servants, peasants in the fields, not to mention cattle and horses: about a millennium ago, those were the categories of living creatures exempt from slaughter in Europe in what was called ‘the Truce of God.’ In the feudal era the nobles had taken to attacking one another, and everybody round about, with gusto, and the very survival of society was in question. The end of the 10th century saw expectation that the world might end in the year 1000, as well as spiritual movements of resistance by the laity, not to mention the emergence of the plague. There began with all of these influences a movement to expand the respite from incessant violence. At first it began modestly in the area around cathedrals, only on Sundays and feast days and then the nobles could go back to work. Soon they managed to split the week in Europe between four days of war and three days of peace. By a century later they had managed to whittle the days when the dukes and barons could pillage and murder to a mere eighty. The Treuga Dei was also, of course, a reminder of the Kingdom of the Prince of Peace in the midst of this rebellious and conflict-ridden world. Unfortunately the idea came to be assimilated into that of the Crusade, so that the violence which had abated in Europe was redirected to the infidel in the Holy Lands. In our own time we have seen an echo of the idea in the Christmas truce in the trenches in the first World War at Christmas Eve 1914, when English and German soldiers met in no-man’s-land, exchanged presents, and sang Stille Nacht. More recently Archbishop emeritus Rowan Williams has used the idea “the truce of God” to describe a central dimension of our Christian witness in our own violence-ridden world.

There are these days a wide reticence, among more traditional and progressive clergy and parishes alike, to address either the debate about marriage or the accompanying debate about the authority and nature of our church, and with that reticence I sympathize. This struggle has cost us all dearly in money, people, and a discouraging division displayed to the world. To give but one example from my own experience, it recently occurred to me driving up 75 on the way to Plano that I was leading a diocese which had what psychologists call ‘phantom limb syndrome,’ one of our three largest parishes still being felt in its absence. But, at this gathering, in the wake of General Convention, as I enter the second half of my tour of all the vestries and bishop’s committees of this Diocese, in the midst of a particularly divisive and anger laden season in American life, I want to speak directly, this one time only, to the issue of ‘communion across difference’ as a result of differences over the teaching on marriage, and how these have an impact on our common life as a diocese. This one time. In his recent visit to Dallas, in explicit solidarity with us who are Communion Partner bishops and dioceses, traditionally oriented on this question but loyal to the Church, Archbishop Justin Welby said that he wanted to reaffirm the Communion’s teaching on marriage, he wanted to draw a line, and get on with mission! And one can readily sympathize with that desire. With a similarly irenic hope, I offer this address in order to exhort us to move on together in mission.


20

Diocese of Dallas, gathered as one at this Diocesan Convention, I as your bishop, declare to you the Truce of God! If you forget all the details of our working out, and they are many, of the arrangement based on General Convention Resolution B012, remember this: the time has come for the Truce of God. Many on both sides have wounds, perceived wrongs, suspicions, strategies. And everyone of us must lay some of these down, not somebody else, but us - you, me. I am not calling on you to lay down theological commitments, no I think our Church needs more theological seriousness and thought, not less. I am saying that we need, with God’s help, as Churchmen and Churchwomen, to find a way for us to live together, in what these times call ‘Communion across Difference.’ A taskforce with this name was created by General Convention, one of a number of efforts to help toward this goal. (I might add, our own Fred Ellis and Christopher Wells are, across difference, participants). Before even addressing how theologically, or practically, we can do this, everyone of us must start, in our hearts, with the Truce of God. We need to banish rancor, anger, wrong, fear with the help of God’s grace. You and I need to pitch our tents in the demilitarized zones around our churches.

As I am sure you will recall from your multiple readings of your well-thumbed copy of my 64 page pastoral letter, sitting as it is familiarly on your night table, I am committed to the unity of the Church, the traditional teaching on marriage, and proceeding together in charity and hospitality one with another. I intentionally planted this flag before General Convention, come what may. These are immoveable, but figuring out how to manage all three at the same time – well that is the trick! It is in this light that we must understand our working out of B012 in this diocese. The rectors of three parishes, St. Thomas, Transfiguration, and Ascension, have requested the assisting oversight which would make access to these rites possible for them. They all remain members fully of the diocese; they are here today as full members at the Convention, as they will be so in a year, though by that time the three will have come under spiritual sacramental supervision – supervision that I am able to give you more details about soon. Their bishop will come alongside and help us in a manner that I cannot. We are all still in communion as members of the Episcopal Church. We are all called to abide by what our conscience and conviction tell us. This has its challenging aspects emotionally, but we have to work out the specifics together. And I hope that these parishes will invite me to come preach and teach each year as a guest, in the spirit of friendship. Meanwhile our national church has just published demographic update, and it shows that the Jesus Movement notwithstanding, our numbers decline unabated. In the face of these daunting realities, I believe our emphases on young ordained leadership, a congregation-centered strategy, and planting, partnerships, and rebooting continue to fit the need of our diocese and this part of the church in this time.

As I mentioned in passing above, all this is taking place in a public and political atmosphere which is borderline poisonous. It is specifically as American Christians that we must make this witness to the gospel of Jesus Christ together. And that means a witness together, blue and red, in charity and friendship across difference, and against the grain of an angry political scene. In America in 2018, that means Episcopalians together who speak English and Spanish. In America in 2018, that means one denomination consciously reaching its hands out to fellow denominations and fellow Christians who are predominantly African American; that means reaching out in friendship to fellow Christians who are Roman Catholic in a time of heartbreak and crisis for them. (I should add that our own neighbor Bishop Burns has shown courage and bold leadership in the cause of accountability.)

Our founding fathers and mothers, some of whom were Episcopalians, they also lived in a time of divisiveness. Their political wisdom filtered out into our Episcopal polity, which has an important place for lay leaders (of which this body is an offshoot 2 ¼ centuries later, as is the House of Bishops, their own version of bicameral governance.) I do not dictate, I give you my two cents. We aim to live out our vocation as a traditional diocese in charity and with a witness on behalf of the Episcopal Church, which is our Church. To do this, a canon which reaffirms the traditional teaching on marriage is valuable. The fellowship of traditional dioceses, for mutual encouragement, called ‘Communion Partners,’ is valuable, not to be separate, but on behalf of the whole Church, and was ringingly endorsed by Justin Welby. As a traditional diocese in charity with a vocation on behalf of our Episcopal Church, I encourage the paying of our assessment to the budget of General Convention, about which I have my own criticisms. That is what being part of a body means. But I also believe that compromise worked out a few years ago for alternative optional giving continues to be wise. I might say that some of that alternative giving is going to retired Cuban clergy who have no pension. I believe we need to


21

emphasize hospitality and friendship, and so I hope, as I say, to continue to preach and teach in all the parishes of this diocese.

Crisis is what we Anglicans in our own way have been in for two decades; at its worst, split churches have resulted, and we have seen some of that nearby. But at their best, crises throw us back in our incapacity on the grace of God, and they require us anew to give an account of who we really are and what we are really for. Moments of deep uncertainty about the future throw us back on the certainty of what God has already done for us in Jesus Christ, which is to say back to the Gospel. We are reminded that amidst all its busyness the Church is a sign of what God has already graciously done, and therefore what we are given, not what we have earned, through no virtue or accomplishment of our own.

In this spirit we consider the verse that I chose for this convention, the verse that we also heard about in our sermon from Ephesians 4 to ‘speak the truth in love,’ the conjunction of the two, by the grace of God, as the word we particularly need at this time. Truth and love should, in the words of the 85th Psalm, ‘kiss one another,’ together, they reflect who Jesus Christ is. But we also need to hear that one verse, together, at this moment in history, with the rest of Ephesians 4. The chapter begins by reminding us that we are not sitting here to decide our own future. We are here as inheritors of ‘one Lord, one faith, one baptism.’ Then the chapter places all of our gifts, risks, and hopes on the foundation of the incarnation, death, descent among the dead, resurrection, ascension, and call to mission of Jesus Christ. It refers all of our perplexity back to Him, whose going high is actually, it says, his descending low on our behalf - a logic which is counter-worldly. Then the chapter puts the ministry of the whole people of God as His servants centerstage, the ordained only servants of them for Jesus’ sake. Only then does it turn to how choppy the water around our boat is, how brisk the winds of confusion and cultural distraction. But even here Paul is not bogged down in culture wars. He points ahead to a vision ahead of us, described in terms of spiritual maturity, in terms of being even in heaven as one body, in being continually and painfully conformed to the image of Jesus Christ himself. Only as we bear in mind the full context of Ephesians 4 do we approach the challenge of ‘speaking the truth in love.’ My mother instructed her children, as did her mother, ‘is it true, is it kind, is it necessary?’ maybe yours said that too. It is a high bar, and it is in the spirit of Ephesians 4. Sometimes we manage one of the two, truth and love, after which we repair to the absolution of God. But we try again, and we aim high for this ring, because Jesus Christ has embodied and enacted it already on our behalf.

Indulge me, before I close, in a more personal postscript. We recently had the RADVO conference, which was hosted by the Church of the Incarnation, a remarkable moment of promise for young leadership in our Church. My son attended, and he had a nametag on. Someone came up to him and said “Sumner? Are you the bishop’s grandson?” He liked the story a lot too. Many others in this room inhabit the season in which we are to find what the great psychiatrist Eric Erikson called generativity. We are to seek our satisfaction in the emergence of a new generation assuming leadership. I am grateful for that calling; it is what RADVO was about; it is what we are about in the ordination process. But it is also what every confirmation class in every parish is about. It is what every pursuit of ‘new blood’ for your vestry is about. It is what a class we want to start in the new year in Spanish for a new generation of Latino leaders is about. We who are parents know that we have no power to make this happen. Nor do we who are old fully understand the world into which they move. For the camaraderie of so much passionate energy about the Diocese among young people, I am grateful. For the opportunity on behalf of them and with them to rediscover the beautiful clay pot called ‘Anglicanism’ in which is found the Gospel of Jesus Christ, I am grateful to God. In my own personal prayer for this coming year, and for those that follow, God willing, is to be turned, more and more to this foundational work of teaching the faith, of spiritual renewal, among the rising generation, the work that is often lost in immediate needs, the work which is most telling for the future of our Church. For such a high thing to worry about, exceeding our capacity, may you and I, this afternoon, give thanks to God for whom all things are possible. Amen.

Oremos. Dios de verdad y amor, Nuestro Padre, El Rey de toda la gente del mundo, te agradecemos por tu gracia a nosotros, tus niños, teniendos pecados, y por el don de la iglesia, el cuerpo cruzado y resuscitado de tu Hijo. Enseñanos para hablar con amor. Haga que la treuga Dei sea un realidad en nuestra vida comun. Danos corazones abiertos por mission. Oremos todos en el nombre poderoso y dulce de Jesus Cristo. Amen.

At the conclusion of the address, the convention showed its appreciation with extended applause.

REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON CONSTITUTION AND CANONS (Continued)

The Chair called upon the Chancellor of the Diocese, Mr. David Parsons, who is also Chair of the Committee on Constitution and Canons, to continue the report of the Constitution and Canons Committee.

Mr. Parsons moved the adoption of 2018 – C04 after the revised report of the Constitution and Canons Committee. The amendment was debated.

The Rev. Canon Victoria Heard, Redeemer, Irving, moved for a vote by orders on the resolution. The Chair approved her motion.

The Rev. Perry Mullins, St. Peter’s, McKinney, moved an amendment to this resolution, removing the word independent from the requirements for churches in the compilation category but leaving it for those in the review and audit categories. The amendment was seconded, and it was discussed. A vote was taken, and the amendment to the resolution passed.

After much debate, the Rev. David Houk, St. John’s, Dallas, made a motion to end debate and call the question. It was seconded and passed by a voice vote. The vote on the amended resolution was taken by orders, and it was defeated.

Mr. Parsons concluded the report of the Committee on Constitution and Canons.

EXECUTIVE COUNCIL 2018

The Executive Council of the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas administers the Missionary, Social Service and Christian Education work of the Diocese and is charged with the fiduciary responsibility of budget and finances of the Diocese. It also discharges such other duties as may be entrusted to it by the Convention.

The following summarizes actions taken by the Executive Council during 2018:

TREASURER’S REPORTS January 9, 2018 No financial reports were presented as the year-end reports for 2017 are still in progress.

A 2018 housing allowance resolution for The Revd Michael Hurst was presented. Mother Tankersley moved that the resolution be accepted. No second was required as the resolution had previously been approved by the Finance Committee. Motion carried.

Ms. Sonom reported that Ascension (Dallas) had requested permission to amend their 2016 Parochial Report, which would reduce their 2018 Assessment. The parish had incorrectly included the gross income from Ascension Day School on Line 5 instead of net income. This revision would reduce their 2018 Assessment from $98,272 to $78,478. Mr. J.C. Snead moved that the revised 2016 Parochial Report for Ascension (Dallas) be accepted. No second was required as the reports had previously been approved by the Finance Committee. Motion carried.

No second was required as the reports had previously been approved by the Finance Committee. Motion carried.

Ms. Sonom presented a recommendation from the Finance Committee that the investment account at Raymond James be closed and the funds distributed to their corresponding checking accounts (Mission Expansion and Development, Revolving Funds, and Special Funds).

September 11, 2018 Ms. Mary Sonom, Treasurer, presented the August 2018 financial reports. Ms. Ticoy Young notified the Committee that two line items had been added the Balance Sheet under Designated Reserves. The line items, Former Revolving Fund and New Mission Congregation Reserve, reflect the funds transferred into the Operating Account from the closing of the Diocese’s account with Raymond James. The Revd Perry Mullins moved that the reports be approved. No second was required as the reports had previously been approved by the Finance Committee. Motion carried.

Ms. Sonom presented the proposed changes to Canon 29 concerning the requirement of annual external audits, reviews, and compilations for all Diocesan congregations and institutions based on annual operating income. The proposed changes were recommended to the Council by the Finance Committee. Discussion followed. Monies will be set aside in the Diocesan 2020 budget to help defray the cost for smaller parishes during the first year of implementation. If passed by the Convention, Bishop Sumner will waive the new requirement in 2019 in order to give congregations an opportunity to budget for the additional expense beginning in 2020. Mr. Paul Lasiter moved that the Executive Council serve as sponsor for the Canon 29 changes to the 123rd Annual Convention along with the Diocesan Treasurer and the Finance Committee. Mr. Ellis seconded. Motion carried.

CHRISTIAN FORMATION COMMISSION 2018

The Christian Formation Commission exists to be a catalyst for the work of Christian Formation in our whole diocese. In February 2018, we led our annual workshop, featuring the Rev. Charlie Holt, president of Bible Study Media and Associate Rector for Teaching and Formation at St. John the Divine Episcopal Church in Houston, Texas, as our keynote speaker along with a host of other workshop leaders on topics such as intergenerational formation, Godly Play, and Spanish-language resources. In addition to the annual workshop, we purchased educational materials for our diocesan resource room, allowing churches with small budgets to have access to up-to-date resources.

CLERGY CONFERENCES AND CONTINUTING EDUCATION 2018

In 2018, the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas offered several opportunities for clergy education and formation. In January 2018, the Rev. Dr. Paul Avis spoke to a group of clergy at Canterbury House. The annual clergy conference was held in April at Camp Allen. At this three-day retreat for clergy, Dr. Joseph Mangina spoke on the Gospel of John and the Rev. Dr. Emma Ineson preached, along with several workshops offered by diocesan clergy and staff. In November, the Pre-Convention Leadership Day focused on clergy wellness, with clergy and spouses invited to hear Dr. Wanda Malcolm, Professor of Pastoral Psychology at Wycliffe College, Toronto.

CLERGY FAMILY COMMISSION 2018

The Clergy Family Commission participated in the annual EDOD convention luncheon for spouses in 2018. This time of fellowship was an opportunity to meet new and longtime clergy spouses of the diocese and to share information about outreach in different churches.

The annual Epiphany gathering featured the Scott Moss Country Western band, providing attendees an opportunity to test their Texas two stepping and line dancing skills. Dinner was provided by Two Friends BBQ of South Dallas. Many thanks to the committee for making this event possible.

The advent devotionals in 2019 onward will feature members of the diocese.

The Clergy Spouse Bible Study met in the fall of 2018 at St. James, and we met at Good Shepherd, Dallas, in the spring of 2019. As circumstances always seem to be changing in ministry, we welcomed some new faces in CSBS this past year as well as some familiar ones. In the fall we studied I Thessalonians and in the Spring we studied the seven "I Am" statements of Jesus in the gospel of John. The Clergy Family Commission and the EDOD provided dinner for all of the attendees at each meeting. The CSBS members also supported each other in prayer and even had a baby shower for Jess Pollock. We appreciate St. James and Good Shepherd, Dallas, for hosting us and Bishop George and Stephanie Sumner for their prayers and especially for financing the meals.

COLLEGE OF DEACONS 2018

The College of Deacons is an essential ministry in the diocese, called to model servant ministry for others, to interpret to the Church the needs, concerns, and hopes of the world. Deacons are called to engage members of the church in the mission of meeting the needs, sharing the concerns and kindling the hopes of others. Deacons live into this call in a wide variety of ways.

Some deacons serve on the bishop’s staff, and on diocesan councils and commissions. Some deacons have a major role in Jubilee Ministries in the diocese; others are active in Kairos ministry, serve as hospital chaplains, and serve as deans for summer camp at Camp All Saints. Deacons are participants and leaders in both domestic and world-wide mission efforts, and active in the Dallas community on boards and commissions. Deacons are retreat leaders and community gardeners; deacons are involved in healing ministries like Community of Hope and Stephen Ministry. In their parishes, deacons help


19

organize outreach activities, are leaders in Christian education (Education for Ministry, Christian Formation, Bible Study), and offer pastoral care to the sick and the homebound. Deacons accompany the bishops on visitations to the parishes.

The annual deacons’ meeting with the bishop was held at the Diocesan Office on January 13, 2018. Bishop Sumner led a discussion of Charity as Christian witness, and then celebrated Eucharist with us. 18 of the 20 currently active deacons were present. Following lunch, each deacon shared about their ministry, their joys and their challenges.

In March, Archdeacon Rosemary Trei represented Dallas at the AED Archdeacons Conference in Atlanta. Rosemary also attended General Convention in Austin, July 4-13, serving as a greeter at the Association of Episcopal Deacons booth, and assisting at all the worship activities during convention.

Our annual Deacons’ Retreat was held August 16-18 at Montserrat Jesuit Retreat House on Lake Lewisville, and was led by Mother Rebecca Tankersley. Mtr. Rebecca led us in reflections on “Spiritual Friendships”, encouraging us to seek those special relationships for support in our ministry and for our own self-care. 15 Deacons attended the retreat.

On September 29th, the Deacons of Dallas hosted a meeting of Metroplex deacons at Redeemer, Irving. Ten deacons from Ft. Worth and Dallas dioceses gathered to share resources and plans for service to those in need in their communities. We also shared Christian Formation resources, and ideas about pastoral care programs.

Deacons participated in the Annual Diocesan Clergy Conference at Camp Allen. Deacons also served in the Diocesan Eucharist in November. Deacons accompanied Bishop Sumner and Assisting Bishop Smith on 52 visitations to parishes throughout the year. As of December, we have 20 active deacons (2 not canonically resident) and 5 retired deacons (3 still semi-active) in the diocese.

COMMISSION ON MINISTRY 2018

The Commission on Ministry (COM) fulfills the canonical requirement to advise the Bishop in the implementation of Title III.6 and III.8 of the Canons of The Episcopal Church, in the determination of the present and future needs for ministry, and in the design and oversight of the process for recruitment, discernment, formation, and assessment of persons for ministry.

The Commission conducted 11 meetings over the course of the year to examine and interview those responding to a call for Holy Orders. Those sessions included:

• hosted 14 aspirants at the annual discernment retreat, • interviewed 8 nominees for postulancy • interviewed 6 postulants for candidacy • interviewed 7 candidates for Diaconate • interviewed 3 deacons for the priesthood • there were 9 candidates examined by the Board of Examining Chaplains, a sub-committee of the Commission.

The Commission is a dedicated group of 19 members plus 3 Ex-Officio members from across the diocese. I thank the members of COM for their commitment of time, their prayers and their dependence on our Lord for discernment for all ministry vocations both ordained and lay. It is with great pleasure I serve as chair to this group under the direction of our bishop.

CONGREGATIONAL DEVELOPMENT 2018

The Diocese provides congregational development grants to churches needing financial assistance to further their mission and to congregations whose circumstances are such that assistance is necessary to ensure their unique place in our common life as a diocese.

The following congregations received congregational development grants in 2018: St. Christopher’s, Dallas; St. Augustine’s, Oak Cliff; St. Matthias, Athens; Our Merciful Savior, Kaufman; All Saints, Atlanta; St. Mary’s, Irving; and The Gathering, Dallas.

It is worthy to note that all 2018 grants to those who received a grant in 2017 were reduced. That these congregations continue to make progress toward financial self-sufficiency is laudable.


CONVENTION ARRANGEMENTS COMMITTEE 2018

Bishop Sumner selected the theme for the Convention: “But speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ” Ephesians 4:15

The Planning Committee for the 123rd Annual Convention of the Diocese of Dallas began preparation meetings in the spring of 2018 at the Diocesan Offices. The Committee members were as follows:

The Rt. Rev. George Sumner, The Rev. Cn. Michael Gilton, Kay Crews, Fr. Bob Corley, Fr. Perry Mullins, Mtr. Amy Heller, Fr. Keith Turbeville, Virginia Wilder, Amy Wooten, Ticoy Young, Susan Mills, Kim LaNore, Laura Faulkner, Don Mills, Bill McGannon, Kimberly Durnan, Tony Briggle, Chair and Gayle Kesinger, Co-Chair, Incoming Co-Chairs Mark and Terry Demler.

A detailed timeline was developed to guide the Committee in its work. The Bishop set this one day convention to be held at the Episcopal School of Dallas, Dallas, TX. The Head of School, David Baad graciously offered the use of the facility and staff for the Convention purposes. The date of the Convention was to be November 3, 2018. As in the previous year, the Committee had the responsibility for rental of equipment, audiovisual and catering. Site visits to the school and meetings with various vendors were scheduled throughout the summer. Fr. Perry Mullins chaired the Nominating Committee from May to August. Annette Jenkins, Executive Director of One Man’s Treasure, once again requested permission to exhibit at the Convention and request gently worn coats for men coming out of prison. This service project has been a great success. The Rev. Bob Corley directed the worship. The service of Eucharist began at 8:30 am. Altar Guild duties were provided by members of the Saint Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church Altar Guild.


21

Don Mills and Bill McGannon organized the Vendors and Exhibitors. Arrangements were made for the tables that would be in the main hallway of the school. A total of 19 vendors exhibited a variety of items, and brisk sales were observed during the breaks.

By November 3, 2018, all was in place, and a very successful Convention was held.

CURATE DEVELOPMENT 2018

During the program year, our diocesan curates gather each month to discuss and think theologically about some aspect of ministry, led by one of our diocesan clergy or another guest leader and focused by assigned reading. We rotate our meeting locations to various congregations of our diocese to give curates a sense of ministry beyond their particular cure, and we also gather once for an overnight retreat at Camp All Saints. As Canon Theologian, I am responsible for assigning texts, topics, locations, and guest leaders, as well as leading discussion of assigned texts. Our aim is for our curates to grow in practical skills for ministry and for the priestly life (topics include preaching, parish finances and clergy taxes, Christian education, and evangelism), to think theologically about all aspects of ministry praxis, and to build a cohort of friends and colleagues among diocesan curates. It is one of the parts of my job that I most enjoy!

EPISCOPAL CENTER FOR RENEWAL 2018

Dear Brothers and Sisters of the Diocese of Dallas,

I am grateful for the work that God is doing for the renewal of his church through the ministry of the Episcopal Center for Renewal. We have been blessed with a dedicated group of leaders that have walked through a major transition, and we are beginning to see the fruit of that labor.

In 2018 the Secretariat built a Renewal Weekend to serve the parishes of our diocese in partnership with the Diocese of Fort Worth. The weekend advances many of same principles as the Cursillo retreat weekend and is designed to integrate with the existing Cursillo Movement. The process of development took over a year, including a ‘beta’ weekend in June of 2018 and finally the first ‘production’ weekend in October of 2018. Development included creation of an overall vision, sharing and refining the vision with our bishops and the renewal community, the creation of a Participant Workbook used throughout the weekend, talk and Bible study outlines, training materials, logistics planning, and worship materials.

The beta weekend was well received by those in attendance. The Secretariat served as the team for this weekend, and twenty participants were recruited from several parishes and age groups, with a mix of people who had and had not attended a Cursillo weekend. The weekend was hosted at St. Paul, Waxahachie, and a local hotel. We received excellent feedback regarding the weekend, which validated our model and helped to refine the details of the weekend design.

In October 2018 we held our first production Renewal Weekend at Camp Crucis in Granbury. We fielded a staff of eleven, which was drawn largely from the June retreat participants. They hosted eighteen participants from eight parishes. The weekend was well received by all but one participant, who was disappointed by the changes.

The Episcopal Center for Renewal expended $7,434 in 2018 to support the Renewal Weekend, including underwriting a majority of the costs for the participants of the beta weekend. We closed out 2018 with $4,204 in our account. Additionally, the dioceses of Dallas and Fort Worth have funds designated for renewal programs.

In 2019 we have scheduled two Renewal Weekends, in June at Prothro Center on Lake Texoma and in October at Camp Crucis. We are also exploring the offering of a third weekend using a parish / hotel model in 2020. The Episcopal Center for Renewal is also examining our governance, including our bylaws and operations.

We hope that the Renewal Weekend will be a useful tool for the renewal of our diocese as we seek to engage in the work of Christ’s Kingdom here in north Texas.

EPISCOPAL FOUNDATION OF DALLAS 2018

Organization The Episcopal Foundation of Dallas (“the Foundation”) was established by the Diocesan Convention of 1950. It is organized as a Texas non-profit corporation and is qualified as a Section 501(c) (3) exempt organization. The Foundation exists to strengthen and support faith communities by partnering wise investments with purposeful giving. It offers investment management services within the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas and supports organizations within the Diocese through its annual grant program. The Foundation is professionally managed and is governed by a Board of Trustees, all of whom are committed to good stewardship, prudent investment and faithful disbursement of the funds entrusted to the Foundation. The Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas serves as an ex officio member of the board.

Investment Services The Foundation’s investment management services are available to any parish, mission, school or other non-profit Episcopal organization in the Diocese.

All investment assets are pooled and invested according to a diversified asset allocation described in our investment policy. This structure creates an opportunity for clients to invest at reduced fees not otherwise available to smaller investors. The portfolio includes actively- and passively-managed mutual funds, diversified both as to fixed income and equity holdings with an aim of long-term growth. Members of the Investment and Finance committee have decades of experience in multiple investment institutions and are responsible for the supervision of the portfolio of the Foundation.

Donor Advised Funds The Foundation is now offering individuals a way to direct and manage their charitable contributions through donor-advised funds. Creating a fund with EFD allows individuals an economical way to focus on their charitable giving without the burden of paperwork or grant administration. The Foundation staff is available to assist in identifying grant opportunities within the Dioceses if needed.

Assisting the Episcopal Community The Episcopal Fund of EFD generates the funds for our grant program each year. The Foundation would like to grow the fund in order to make a greater impact within our community. Various ways to donate to the Foundation include a bequest, beneficiary designations on life insurance or other retirement assets, and IRA charitable rollovers. Individual and organizational donations can also be made directly to the Foundation.

Annual Grant Program The Foundation offers financial assistance through an annual grant program. This year the Foundation awarded 23 grants totaling $187,000, supporting ministries throughout the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas and has awarded over $3.5 million to the Diocesan community since its inception. Additionally, the Episcopal Health Foundation of Dallas – managed by the same board - has granted more than $6 million since 2013. Applications and information are available on our website.

EVANGELISM INITIATIVE 2018

Throughout 2018, the Evangelism Commission has been very active, working with individual parishes as well as participating in larger events throughout the Diocese of Dallas and beyond in an effort to share Christ. The Episcopal Diocese of Dallas Evangelism Initiative is dedicated to resourcing and equipping all parishes of the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas in the work of personal and parish evangelism. Some of the highlights of the past year are as follows:

In 2018, the Evangelist-in-Residence program was launched. It is a program where Canon Evangelist Carrie Headington spends several months with one parish helping them to develop an evangelistic culture and system to bring forth renewal and mission. In 2018, Canon Headington spent time at both Holy Nativity, Plano, and St. Matthew’s Cathedral, Dallas.


23

In addition to the Evangelist-in-Residence program, Canon Headington engaged in parish evangelism consultations, parish visits, and evangelism workshops. These parishes include: Resurrection, Plano; St. Nicholas, Flower Mound; St. Justin’s, Canton; St. Paul, Waxahachie; St. Matthias, Athens; St. Thomas, Ennis; and Holy Trinity by the Lake, Heath. She also led training sessions for the EDOD curates and the summer staff at Camp All Saints.

Canon Headington continues to teach her Evangelism Cohort through the Stanton Center for Ministry. She taught monthly courses on evangelism and apologetics.

The partnership between the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas and churches and ministries in South Dallas through the Greater Dallas Coalition and Reconcile Dallas continue to grow in 2018. Jointly we participated in the Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Parade in Dallas, the Dallas Champions Camp, a one-day Champions Camp at the Gainesville Jail, and an informational tour of South Dallas.

In March 2018, Canon Headington and several of the clergy of the Diocese participated in The Episcopal Church’s Evangelism Matters conference in Ohio. In addition, Canon Headington and diocesan clergy led sessions, including Mtr. Leslie Stewart and Mtr. Samira Izadi Page.

Canon Headington continues to serve on the Presiding Bishop Michael Curry’s Evangelism Leadership team, especially leading evangelism training for all dioceses engaging in revivals with Bishop Michael Curry. Canon Headington contributes to many evangelism projects for TEC including writing the chapter on evangelism for Acts to Actions: A New Testament Guide to Mission and Evangelism. (Forward Movement).

Finally, the ministry of the Harvest Prayer Network continues to grow, and they visited many churches to teach on intercessory prayer and how to start parish prayer groups for missions. In addition to their bi-weekly prayer at the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas, they also provided prayer support for the RadVo conference held in September at Incarnation, Dallas. Finally, they published a book on intercessory prayer titled “Come Holy Spirit” and set up a website in both Spanish and English to resource EDOD and the wider TEC on intercessory prayer. www.harvestprayernetwork.com and http://oraciondelacosecha.com/.

THE GATHERING 2018

Throughout 2018, “The Gathering” continued to fulfill its stated mission, to build and nurture a loving and compassionate faith community where the housed and unhoused gather to seek healing, spiritual fulfillment and Christian community, attending to the pastoral and physical needs of displaced members of the Body of Christ. In 2018, our sixth year, we provided 52 Sunday services, involved 36 clergy and over 500 lay volunteers in our mission, served 5700 meals, provided 100 sleeping bags, 125 backpacks, 425 hygiene packs, 1500 pairs of socks, and 150 blankets, as well as coats, hats, scarves and gloves, to carry our homeless members through the winter. Our leadership team provided countless hours of volunteer services, zeroing-in on the physical, spiritual and pastoral needs of our members. Though financial support has been difficult, we are blessed by the giving hearts of both parishes and individuals, and we plan a fundraising effort for late 2019. Our continuing goal is to involve more and more parishes, priests, deacons and laity in our work to bolster our perceived call: to fulfill Christ’s mandate to all Christians found in the 25th chapter of St. Matthew’s gospel.

PASTORAL CARE FOR ACTIVE AND RETIRED CLERGY 2018

It is a pleasure to serve as the Canon Pastor for the Episcopal Diocese of Dallas. This part-time position helps to maintain connections of retired clergy and their spouses to each other and to the diocese. Additionally, the Canon Pastor provides pastoral care to any active clergy as requested by themselves or the Bishop or the Canon to the Ordinary.

A few of the ways in which this is accomplished are remembering birthdays and anniversaries, visiting retirees in person, helping the diocese keep accurate contact information for retired clergy families, organizing periodic luncheon gatherings, informing the Bishop and the Canon to the Ordinary of important developments in the lives of retired clergy, making sure that all retired clergy or surviving spouses have access to the Holy Sacrament, visiting retired clergy when hospitalized, attending the funerals of all clergy, and making pastoral care available to surviving spouses.

RURAL CHURCH DEVELOPMENT 2018

Over a third of the churches in our diocese are located outside the metroplex and are loosely considered “rural” with few exceptions. For practical purposes however, rural churches are defined as parishes and missions located in low populated areas outside the densely populated influence of the metroplex. All of these churches are located within the Southern and Northeastern convocations.

The Rural Church Commission, chaired by Rebecca Welborn, has been the leading force in organizing and planning programs designed specifically for the needs and interest of the rural congregations for more than a dozen years. An annual meeting called the Rural Church Gathering has continued to be well attended by representatives of the majority of our rural churches. Programs that have been planned and presentations have attempted to address the unique issues that our rural congregations share in common. For the past two years we have taken advantage of Bishop Fraser Lawton visiting in our diocese and have invited him to speak at a Day with the Bishop gathering again - speaking to the issues that are shared by our rural congregations. These events have been well attended I look forward to continuing this in the future.

We held our second annual Rural Clergy Conference in the spring at Good Shepherd in Terrell. The Rev’s Mike Michie and Neal Michell were two of our featured speakers. The good attendance at this event is a sign that these types of programs are meaningful and useful.

Again, I was able this past year to personally visit in most of our rural congregations throughout the course of the year. I also made myself available to do supply work as needed since finding clergy able to travel long distances to fill this need has been difficult. I continue to look for and encourage retired clergy to help out whenever possible.

This coming year will see some changes and realignment in the Northeastern convocation as we seek ways to better serve our rural congregations through the support and encouragement of our bishop.

THE STANTON CENTER FOR MINISTRY FORMATION 2018

The Stanton Center at Saint Matthew’s Cathedral serves the Diocese of Dallas by providing a variety of courses in theology and spirituality, which meet the needs of Christians who desire to grow and mature in their discipleship, diploma programs for lay leaders in our parishes - with special emphasis in the formation of students for the Order of Lay Evangelists and Order of Lay Catechists, the required education and preparation for individuals seeking ordination to the Diaconate in the Diocese of Dallas, and continuing education for clergy and seminars for lay leaders. The Stanton Center seeks to restore the historic role of the Cathedral as the center for mission and spiritual life in the Diocese of Dallas. The focus of the Center’s mission is to equip and sustain lay and ordained leaders, enabling them to carry out the Great Commission and the Great Commandment. In this way the Center assists the Diocese in nurturing and maintaining the sacred traditions of the Church and enabling all Christians to answer the call to ministry which is received in Baptism. Recent efforts to expand our student base include reaching out to persons for whom the long drive to classes at the cathedral would be difficult by offering online classes and by providing a Stanton Center course (Old Testament) at a satellite location (Frisco) for students in the northern part of the Diocese.

Forty students registered for classes in the 2018-2019 academic year. Two students were awarded Diplomas in Christian Ministry on May 18, 2019.

About the University of the South The University of the South is home to an outstanding liberal arts College of Arts and Sciences, a School of Letters, and a School of Theology. Located atop the Cumberland Plateau between Nashville and Chattanooga, Tennessee, Sewanee's 13,000-acre campus, the second largest campus in the United States, provides students with vast opportunities for research, recreation, and reflection. Within the traditionally strong curriculum of humanities, sciences, and graduate theological studies, Sewanee faculty members promote intellectual growth, critical thinking, and hands-on research.

The University's Board of Trustees is composed of the bishops of the 28 owning dioceses, together with clergy and lay representatives elected by each diocese and representatives of other University constituencies. The Board of Regents, to which the Board of Trustees delegates some of its responsibilities for governance, is composed of Episcopal bishops, priests, and lay people, and may include a limited number of members of other Christian bodies. The chancellor of the University, elected by the Board of Trustees, is a bishop from one of the 28 owning dioceses.


27

An Episcopal Center of Learning The University of the South is an institution of The Episcopal Church dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge, understanding, and wisdom in close community and in full freedom of inquiry, and enlightened by Christian faith in the Anglican tradition, welcoming individuals from all backgrounds, to the end that students be prepared to search for truth, seek justice, preserve liberty under law, and serve God and humanity.

The University was founded by church leaders from the southeastern United States in 1857 and is the only university in the nation that is owned and governed by dioceses of The Episcopal Church, specifically the 28 dioceses that are successors to the original founding dioceses. The historic ownership and governance of the University by these Episcopal dioceses has produced a living synergy of leadership, resource, and mutual support, enriching the Church and advancing the University’s role in American higher education.

VOCATIONS 2018

For 2018, we financially supported six seminarians, four of whom attended Wycliffe College, one Nashotah House and one Trinity School for Ministry. Of those at Wycliffe College, two were resident and two were distance.


YOUTH MINISTRIES 2018

Youth Ministry was in transition throughout most of 2018, as we sought to replace The Rev. Terry Resiner. Thankfully, in November, David Campbell, Director of Camp All Saints, accepted the position as Missioner for Youth.

Report of Independent Auditors To the Bishop Executive Council Episcopal Diocese of Dallas of the Protestant Episcopal Church Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Episcopal Diocese of Dallas of the Protestant Episcopal Church and controlled organizations (the Diocese), which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of activities and changes in net assets, and cash flows for the years then ended, the consolidated statement of functional expenses for the year ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Diocese as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Diocese adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-14, Presentation of Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Entities, as of January 1, 2018. The update addresses the complexity and understandability of net asset classification, information about liquidity and availability of resources, methods used to allocate costs to programmatic and other support, and direction for consistency about information provided on investment return. The adoption of the standard resulted in additional footnote disclosures and changes to the disclosures related to net assets. The ASU has been applied retrospectively to all periods presented with the exception of the omission of certain information as permitted by the ASU. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Other Matter

Report on Supplementary Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The accompanying Consolidating Schedule of Financial Position by Fund Type and Entity and the Consolidating Schedule of Activities by Fund Type and Entity are presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the individual entities, and is not a required part of the consolidated financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the consolidated financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements or to the consolidated financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statements as a whole.

Episcopal Diocese of Dallas of The Protestant Episcopal Church Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

8

Note 1 – Description of Diocese The Episcopal Diocese of Dallas of the Protestant Episcopal Church (the Diocese) is an unincorporated association, which complies with the Constitution and Canons of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America (ECUSA) and recognizes the authority of the General Convention of the Church. The Diocese includes a twenty-five county area in Northeast Texas. The Bishop of the Diocese of Dallas (the Bishop) has jurisdiction over all affiliated organizations within the Diocese including parishes, missions, schools and other charitable organizations and funds. The Endowment of the Episcopate (the EOE) is a trust that was set up and segregated to own and manage investments that provide income for the compensation of the Bishop, the Bishop Coadjutor, and the Bishop Suffragan. The Constitution of the Diocese requires an endowment fund to be managed and controlled by a Board of Trustees appointed by the Bishop. After paying the necessary expenses incident to the management of this EOE, such portion of this EOE and the earnings thereof, as determined by the Board of Trustees (not to take more from the principal than seven percent of its value at the beginning of the year), are applied annually toward the compensation of the Bishop of the Diocese, and of the Bishop Coadjutor, if there be one, and of the Suffragan Bishops, if there be any, or for other expenses of the Office of the Bishop or general Diocesan purposes. The Diocese assumed management of the All Saints Camp and Conference Center (the Camp) in 2010. Consequently, under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), the financial position, activities and changes in net assets, and cash flows of the Camp are consolidated with those of the Diocese. The Camp is considered an evangelism and outreach program. As the Diocese, the EOE, and the Camp, collectively referred to hereafter as the Diocese, are under common control, these financial statements have been consolidated to reflect the results of all three organizations. The Corporation of the Episcopal Diocese (the Corporation) is a separate not-for-profit entity and was formed to hold title to all the real estate occupied by the various parishes and missions within the twenty-five county Diocese. In most cases, the Corporation holds nominal title to the property with the individual parish being the beneficial titleholder. Principles of Consolidation These financial statements include the accounts of the Diocese (Operating Funds and Special Funds), consolidated with the EOE, and the Camp. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Diocese’s management. These accounting policies conform to U.S. GAAP and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. All significant inter-entity transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies New Accounting Pronouncement On January 1, 2018, the Diocese adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-14, Not-for-Profit Entities (Topic 958), Presentation of Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Entities. This guidance is intended to improve the net asset classification requirements and the information presented in the consolidated financial statements and notes about a not-for-profit entity’s liquidity, financial performance, and cash flows. The main provisions of this guidance include (a) presentation of two classes of net assets versus the previously required three, (b) recognition of underwater endowment funds as a reduction in net assets with donor restrictions, and (c) reporting investment income net of external and direct internal investment expenses. The guidance also enhances (a) disclosures for amounts designated by management, (b) compositions of net assets with donor restrictions and how the restrictions affect the use of resources, (c) qualitative and quantitative information about the liquidity and availability of financial assets to meet general expenditures within one year of the consolidated statement of financial position date, (d) and expenses by both their natural and functional classification including methods used to allocate costs among program and support functions. Net assets have not been reclassified for 2017 due to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-14 as of January 1, 2018. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2017 consolidated financial statements to conform to ASU No. 2016-14. Such reclassifications did not change total net assets or changes in net assets as reflected in the 2017 consolidated financial statements. As permitted by the ASU, the Diocese has omitted the consolidated statement of functional expenses for the year ended December 31, 2017. Description of Net Assets Net assets are classified based on existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions as follows: Without Donor Restrictions – consists of resources of the Diocese that have not been restricted by a donor. The major sources of revenue are parish assessments and investment income. With Donor Restrictions – defined as the portion of net assets that have a restriction on the specific use or the occurrence of a certain future event. Net assets consisting of the initial fair value of the gifts where the donor has specified the assets donated are to be retained in an endowment, providing a permanent source of revenue for charitable purposes, are classified as with donor restrictions. The accumulation of assets (above historic gift value) in donor restricted endowment funds is classified as with donor restrictions until appropriated for use based on the Diocese’s spending policy. When the purpose restriction is accomplished, net assets with donor restrictions are reclassified to net assets without donor restrictions and reported as net assets released from restrictions.


10

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Estimates Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and reported revenues and expenses. Significant estimates used in preparing these consolidated financial statements include those assumed in recording depreciation, postretirement benefits, and the value of investments and notes receivable. It is at least reasonably possible that the significant estimates used will change within the next year. Functional Expense Allocations Expenses are allocated among program services and management and general based on management’s estimate of time spent on these functions by specific employees. The remaining costs are charged directly to the appropriate functional category. Major Programs Congregation support & development – Operating grants to existing congregations needing financial assistance to sustain their ministries. Financial support for ongoing efforts to plant new churches. Funding for work of the Diocesan leadership and personnel to further the vision of the Diocese. Clergy support & development – Support for development of seminarians, curates and existing clergy including both financial and personnel resources and including theological research and development. Evangelism & outreach – Funding for spreading the gospel throughout the Diocese and beyond its geographical boundaries. Support of the wider Episcopal Church – Financial support for The Episcopal Church’s General Convention as well as other ministries outside the Diocese of Dallas. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Diocese classifies all unrestricted demand deposits, money market funds and highly liquid debt investments with an initial maturity of three months or less as cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents designated for investment are classified as investments. Revenue, Receivables and Deferred Income from Programs Receivables from programs represent amounts due from attendees of Camp programs and activities. Deferred income from programs represents advance payments to the Camp for programs and activities to be conducted in 2019. Revenue from Camp programs is recognized at the time participants attend the program or activity at the Camp. Investments Investments are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Investment transactions are recorded on their trade date. Unrealized and realized gains and losses are included in the consolidated statement of activities and changes in net assets. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and dividends are recognized on the ex-dividend date.



11

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Investments, continued Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date; that is, an exit price. The exit price assumes the asset or liability is exchanged in an orderly transaction, and it is not a forced liquidation or distressed sale. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. The three levels of the hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Diocese has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 instruments. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these products does not entail a significant degree of judgment.

Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are based on directly or indirectly observable inputs such

as quoted prices for similar assets in active markets and quoted prices in markets that are not active.

Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable, significant to the fair value measurement, and reflect significant management judgment.

The Diocese’s consolidated statement of financial position includes the following financial instruments that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Investments in mutual funds and common stock are considered Level 1 assets and are reported at fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets at the measurement date.

Investments held at the Episcopal Foundation of Dallas (the Foundation) are reported at fair value based on the fair value of the underlying assets in the funds as reported by the Foundation. The investments utilize the net asset value of the fund as a practical expedient to estimate the fair value.

Inventories Camp inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.


12

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Notes Receivable The Diocese provides low-interest rate loans to organizations within the Diocese. These loans are stated at the principal balance and are due under various terms. Interest income is recognized when earned; however, accrual of interest is discontinued when an allowance for collectability is reserved against a loan. The Diocese examines all loans on an individual basis to determine the likelihood of collection and the need to provide an allowance for any uncollectible amounts. The Diocese has discretion regarding any borrower unable to meet its payments during the year, and may elect to write-off loans to assist these borrowers or extend the loan. Land, Property, and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost when purchased or at fair value as of the date of the gift when donated. Major expenditures in excess of $2,500 and those which substantially increase the useful lives of the assets are capitalized. Maintenance, repairs and replacements, which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets, are charged to operations when incurred. When property and equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation is removed, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Donated assets are reported as unrestricted support unless the donor has restricted the asset for a specific purpose. Assets donated with explicit restrictions regarding their use and contributions of cash that must be used to acquire property and equipment are reported as restricted support. Absent donor stipulations regarding how long those donated assets must be maintained, the Diocese reports expirations of donor restrictions when the donated or acquired assets are placed in service as instructed by the donor. The Diocese reclassifies temporarily restricted net assets to unrestricted net assets at that time. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method at rates sufficient to amortize the related costs over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Estimated useful lives range from 3 to 40 years. Postretirement Benefits The Diocese estimates its postretirement benefit costs and obligations associated with its Medicare Supplement Plan using various actuarial assumptions and methodologies. Assumptions include the current discount rate, expected costs of the plan over time, and mortality rates. To assist in developing these assumptions and estimates, the Diocese uses the services of an independent actuary. Although the Diocese believes that the assumptions used are appropriate, differences between assumed and actual experience may affect the Diocese’s operating results.



13

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Revenues and Support The Executive Council of the Diocese has the authority to assess the parishes and missions for support of the budget as established by the annual Diocesan Convention. The Diocese receives a substantial portion of its revenues from assessments on parishes and missions within the Diocese. Assessments receivable at the balance sheet date represent amounts due from various parishes and missions. No amounts are considered uncollectible as the Diocese fully expects to collect these amounts. Any excess assessments at year end are retained by the Diocese for use in the succeeding year. Contributions are comprised of revenue from gifts, grants, and bequests. Contributions are considered to be without donor restriction unless they are specifically restricted by the donor. Contributions designated for future periods or restricted by the donor for specific purposes or in perpetuity are reported as contributions with donor restrictions. Camp revenue represent amounts due from attendees of Camp programs and activities. Income Taxes The Diocese, the EOE, and the Camp are not-for-profit organizations that are exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. U.S. GAAP requires management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Diocese and recognize a tax liability if the Diocese has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the U.S. federal, state, or local tax authorities. The Diocese has analyzed their tax positions and has concluded that as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, there are no uncertain positions taken, or expected to be taken, that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In February of 2016, FASB issued its new lease accounting guidance in ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date of the lease, and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Accounting by lessors is largely unchanged. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years and is to be applied on a modified retrospective basis. The Diocese is currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on its financial statements.


14

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Recent Accounting Pronouncements, continued In June of 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-08, Clarifying the Scope and the Accounting Guidance for Contributions Received and Contributions Made. ASU No. 2018-08 clarifies and improves the scope and the accounting guidance for contributions received and contributions made. The amendments in this Update should assist entities in (1) evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as contributions (nonreciprocal transactions) within the scope of Topic 958, Not-for-Profit Entities, or as exchange (reciprocal) transactions subject to other guidance and (2) determining whether a contribution is conditional. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years and is to be applied on a modified retrospective basis. The Diocese is currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on its financial statements. In March of 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715), which improves the current presentation requirements and the information presented in financial statements and notes about an entity’s net periodic pension costs and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. The ASU introduces the requirement to present employer service cost component in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with application to interim financial statements permitted, but not required, in the initial year of application. The adoption is effective for the Diocese for the calendar year ending December 31, 2019. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of ASU No. 2017-07 on the consolidated financial statements.



15

Note 3 – Liquidity and Availability Financial assets available for general expenditures, that is, without donor or other restrictions limiting the use, within one year of the date of the consolidated statement of financial position are comprised of the following: Financial assets

Cash and cash equivalents 1,552,092$ Investments 5,585,999Assessmnent receivable 66,914Other receivables 58,691Note receivable, related party 12,956

Financial assets available to meet cash needs for general expenditures within one year 198,473$

The Diocese policy is to structure its financial assets to be available to cover the following in order of priority: current operations, planned future operations, unanticipated expenses, sudden shortfalls in revenues, and capital assets.

In addition to financial assets available to meet general expenditures over the next 12 months, the Diocese operates with a balanced budget and anticipates assessments to cover general expenditures. As shown on the consolidated statement of cash flows, the Diocese generated positive cash flows from operations of approximately $323,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018. Financial assets available to meet cash needs for general expenditures within one year as of December 31, 2017 were approximately $483,000.

Note 4 – Investments Investments at December 31 are as follows:

2018 2017Episcopal Foundation of Dallas (the Foundation) 5,585,999$ 6,251,331$ Mutual Funds - 293,605 Total 5,585,999$ 6,544,936$

Funds invested with the Foundation are part of the Foundation’s diversified portfolio of cash, fixed income securities, marketable equity securities, and alternative investments. This investment is valued based upon the Diocese’s pro rata interest in the Foundation’s agency investment funds (approximately 19% and 18% at December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively). This investment seeks to preserve assets through an investment return sufficient to offset inflation and enhance, where possible, assets through an investment return sufficient to achieve payout objectives and preserve the value of the corpus. The Diocese’s investment may be redeemed at any time with no prior notice. The Foundation will normally remit funds by month end following a request for redemption. In the event of a total liquidation of the Diocese’s investment, the Foundation may hold back a portion of the investment related to alternate investments which may be redeemed quarterly with a 90-day notice. The Diocese’s investment returns for the years ended December 31 consist of the following:

2018 2017Dividends and interest 274,402$ 187,912$ Net realized gains 74,140 32,012 Net unrealized gains (losses) (780,974) 829,736 Fees (38,648) (42,611)

Note 5 – Notes Receivable In October 2013, the Diocese agreed to modify its $721,819 loan to an Episcopal school. In exchange for a principal payment of $300,000, the Diocese forgave principal of $301,819, and all accrued interest, leaving an unpaid outstanding balance on the note of $120,000. The terms of the loan were modified to provide for interest only at the rate of 3.5% on the unpaid principal amount, commencing November 30, 2013 thru October 31, 2018. Beginning November 2018, the Episcopal school will make 180 monthly principal and interest payments of $858, until maturity, October 31, 2033. Interest is waived for this note receivable. The note has a current balance of $120,000, which is fully reserved. In March 2016, the Diocese entered into a line of credit loan agreement of up to $250,000 with a second Episcopal school. The loan bears interest at 3% per annum. The loan is payable beginning in March 2019 in monthly principal and interest payments in an amount to amortize the loan in 60 months from the commencement of payments. The loan may be converted to a grant at the option of the Bishop, provided certain performance requirements are met. The note has a current balance of $90,000, which is fully reserved. In September 2016, the Diocese loaned $27,676 to a related party at an interest rate of 3%. The note is payable in 48 semimonthly installments of principal and interest of $665. A final payment is due August 31, 2020. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the total outstanding balance on the note was $12,956 and $20,424, respectively.

Postretirement benefit obligation recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position at December 31, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $644,644 and $705,780, respectively. Amounts recognized in without donor restrictions net assets at December 31, 2018 and 2017, but not yet classified as components of net postretirement benefit cost consist of:

2018 2017Prior service cost $ 397,455 228,481$ Net (gain) loss (105,751) 168,974 Amounts recognized in unrestricted net assets $ 291,704 397,455$

Net periodic postretirement benefit costs recognized for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 are as follows:

2018 2017Service cost $ 4,874 3,778$ Interest cost 23,757 24,050 Recognized net loss 24,920 8,660 Amortization of prior service cost 28,440 28,440 Net periodic postretirement benefit cost $ 81,991 64,928$


20

Note 8 – Employee Retirement Benefits (continued) Changes in unrestricted net assets arising from the postretirement benefit obligation consist of: Unrecognized net actuarial loss, at beginning of year $ 397,455 256,921$ Net (gain) loss (77,311) 168,974 Prior service cost amortization (28,440) (28,440) Unrecognized net actuarial loss, at end of year $ 291,704 397,455$

The estimated prior service credit for the postretirement noncontributory Medicare Supplement previously recognized as a change in unrestricted net assets but not included in net periodic benefit cost that will be amortized into net periodic benefit cost over the next year is $28,440. Assumptions The following weighted-average assumptions were used to determine discount rates at December 31, 2018 and 2017:

2018 2017Net periodic benefit cost discount rate 3.46% 3.93%Benefit obligations 4.07% 3.46%

Assumed health care cost trend rates have a significant effect on the amounts reported for the Medicare Supplement. For measurement purposes, a 5.7% rate of increase was assumed for 2019 grading to 4.50% over 77 years. A one percentage point change in assumed health care cost trend rates would have the following effects:

2018 20171% IncreaseEffect on total of service and interest cost 4,625$ 4,625$ Effect on postretirement benefit obligation 94,991$ 94,991$

1% DecreaseEffect on total of service and interest cost (3,738)$ (3,738)$ Effect on postretirement benefit obligation (78,351)$ (78,351)$

The following minimum benefit payments are expected to be paid:


2019 38,351$ 2020 38,298 2021 38,171 2022 37,956 2023 37,636 Years 2024-2028 188,378

The estimated net contribution for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 is $38,351 and $38,340, respectively.

Note 10 – Endowment Funds The Diocese’s endowment funds consist of approximately six funds, including the EOE, established for a variety of purposes. The endowment funds include both donor-restricted endowment funds and funds designated by the Executive Council to function as endowment. As required by U.S. GAAP, net assets associated with endowment funds, including funds designated by the Executive Council to function as endowments, are classified and reported based on the existence or absence of donor-imposed restrictions. The Diocese has interpreted Texas State Law as requiring it to periodically evaluate the amounts to be preserved as permanently restricted funds for those donor restricted endowment funds subject to Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (UPMIFA). In making such evaluation, the Diocese considers such factors as: (a) the duration and permanence of the fund, giving priority to the donor’s intent that the fund be maintained permanently, (b) the purposes of the Diocese and the fund, (c) general economic conditions, (d) the possible effects of inflation and deflation, (e) the expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments, (f) other resources of the Diocese and (g) the investment policy of the Diocese.


22

Note 10 – Endowment Funds (continued)

Investment Objectives and Spending Policy The Diocese’s investment objective is to earn inflation-offsetting returns that preserve the real value of the assets and where possible earn enhanced returns to achieve the spending objectives of the programs supported by the endowments. Endowment assets include donor-restricted funds that the Diocese must hold in perpetuity as well as board-designated funds. The endowment assets are invested in a diversified investment portfolio designed to achieve a balance of income and growth objectives within prudent risk constraints.

After maintaining the real value of the permanent endowment funds, any remainder of total return is available for appropriation. State law allows the Diocese to appropriate so much of net appreciation as is prudent considering the Diocese's long-term and short-term needs, present and anticipated financial requirements, and expected total return on its investments, price level trends, and general economic conditions.

Changes in the endowment fund composition for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:

2018

2017

From time to time, the fair value of assets associated with individual donor-restricted endowment funds may fall below the level the donor or UPMIFA requires the Diocese to retain as a fund of perpetual duration. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, there were no deficiencies.



23

Note 11 – Concentrations of Risk Two parishes comprise approximately 38% and 37% of total assessments received by the Diocese for the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Diocese had cash deposits with financial institutions that exceeded the FDIC-insured limit at various times during the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. Note 12 – Related Party Activity The Diocese offices in a building owned by the Corporation. The Corporation does not charge the Diocese for the use of these facilities. Note 13 – Contingencies The Diocese is party to various claims and complaints arising in the normal course of operations. In the opinion of management, all such matters are without merit, and an unfavorable disposition would not have a material effect on the financial position of the Diocese. Furthermore, the Diocese anticipates no losses due to environmental issues or hazardous employee working conditions. Note 14 – Subsequent Events In preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Diocese has reviewed events that have occurred after December 31, 2018, through September 10, 2019, the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. During this period, the Diocese did not have any material subsequent events.
